Hi Everyone,

 

I recently managed to get this console, sadly the console looks like it got damaged in transit which broke a couple of plastic tabs off each corner (the end that sits up under the dash).

 

On the positive side the breaks are clean which means it could probably be repaired quite well and wouldn't be noticed once tucked under the dash and not in an area that is likely to see much stress and break again.

 

Console: $100

Choke blanking plate. (out of late fuel injected Fairlady GS30) - This means no cracks around choke.

I'll get rid of the cigarettes before shipping  :P unfortunately this does mean the console smells of smoke.

Since it has a rear ashtray I assume it's from a Fairlady Z 2/2 (GS31)

Crack near rear mounting point also.

The main reason I bought the console was for the OEM 260z Hitachi Head Unit.

 

OEM Head Unit: $300 - I haven't tested it's working yet.

It has the original wiring harness in tact, hasn't been butchered or cut...

Mounting brackets still present also.

Parker Switch: $50

Loom of switch.

I would rather sell it complete as it's easier and less hassle. So will sell the lost for $325 otherwise prices are indicated above.

 

Postage is extra, but for the console it will be expensive....I should be at the Sydney meet next week so might be able to bring it for anyone interested?

 

Just went on eBay to compare prices.. OEM head units.

 

1. Faceplate alone is $60 + postage from US.

If you look here:

You can see that Paul's original 260z AU market car had this head unit also.

Hi Mate

 

If you don't sell it as a complete package I would be in for the Parker switch.

So far I've had interest in the switch and console, so happy to split this lot up.

 

Nobody wants the OEM head unit yet? I would have thought that would be the first go to..

Mate I will take the OEM head unit. Does it work?

I haven't tested it yet, I plan to buy a 12V test bench to test a couple of clocks I have and my 240z radio's but that won't be until I can get to JayCar and see if they have something suitable. Hence I was listing it as untested for now.

 

Let me know what you would like to do?

A few more photos of the radio now it's removed from the console.

 

I discovered the antenna switch on this model is the same as the early 240z switch, 5630073 is the stamping on both parts.

Loom in 1 piece.

May consider selling radio for $250 without Antenna switch, I can include a blanking plate instead (although haven't checked it fits yet) but it should given the switch is the same..

Sorry mate, they will be sold with the radio. Which reminds me I have to send someone a total price for the radio + shipping.

 

If anything falls through, I'll let you know.

No 260z ashtray is wider than 240z ashtray. I have a spare 260z tray in Melbourne if you need 1?

Radio is sold.

Switch is sold.

Console still here, but someone is interested in collecting just haven't found a convenient time for both of us.

Gav,

Does 240z radio face plate would fit into 260z radio?

 

No the DIN pocket shape is inverse between early S30z and later S30z's. So head units are not interchangeable.
